I'm kind of a wuss when it comes to Halloween! I don't get into all the morbid skeletons, scary devils and dripping blood stuff - it kinda creeps me out. I'm more of a "smiling, dancing jack-o-lantern" kinda gal! So I've been hunting down the cutest October crafts to help our family get in the spirit of the upcoming holiday, without getting TOO spooky. :)
By the head witch herself...

... these silly Pumkin Candy Faces found on MarthaStewart.com would make a delicious afternoon project with the kiddos! Protect your Halloween goodies with treat-featured-creatures by securing candy eyes, nose and mouth on with ball pins.

...making spindly spiders that even I could come to love! These Spider Pops couldn't be more simple - just wrap 4 pipe cleaners around the base of a lollipop, bend the legs and glue on they eyes.
And from my kitchen to yours...

pic creds go to Jump Into Fall
...I love making Hershey kiss Witches Hats for fam & friends every year, complete with a snarky little note that says "Have a WITCHIN' Halloween"! (hee hee). These are an especially fun activity for tiny tots: Mom squirts a glob of orange frosting on the upside-down fudge stripe cookie and your little one gets to smush the Hershey kiss on top!

cute stuff! Check out my PROJECT MONDAY meme! We're doing Halloween crafts with the kids that are super cute!
Those are really cute. I especially like the spider sucker. I however am the opposite about halloween and I have spider webs all over my house and fake blood dripping on the window :)
So cute. I am going to make the witch hats for my upcoming pumpkin party.
I love the cookies! I'll definitely be making them with my five year old soon!
The spiders are darling and easy enough for my granddaughter & I to make for our family Halloween party.
Thanks for the idea.
